    The ingenuity of big companies and govt to come up with word salad excuses never ceases to amuse.

    Word of mouth rumors are that some banks are making it much harder to withdraw large sums of cash.

    Daly (San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank) is putting out the message that the Fed should slow down on its rate hikes. In contrast to Daly, Powell is still talking an aggressive rate hiking game until inflation is under control.

    So what does the UN suggest that 1st World Countries do to fight inflation...............

    :drummernana::drummernana::drummernana::drummernana::drummernana::drummernana::drummernana::drummernana::drummernana:





















    PRICE CONTROLS, WINDFALL PROFIT TAXES, AND MORE REGULATIONS

    UN Agency Wants Inflation to Be Fought With Price Controls, Windfall Taxes, Tighter Regulations

    UN’s Grynspan Calls on Central Bankers To Halt Interest Rate Hikes

    "Officials at the UN Conference on Trade and Development recommend that central bankers consider price controls and windfall taxes to combat inflation instead of continued interest rate increases."

    When does the Inflationary Reduction Act kick in on lowering inflation? One of the administration flunkies was just on MSNBC lauding the power of this act. Does not mention when it actually will work. They hang their hat on lower prescription prices which do not kick in until 2026. If you can answer this question truthfully, also let me know when they arrest the SCOTUS leaker.

    Or increased wages for twittiots like those on the thread who can't figure out that "#" means pounds of eggs, and who are screaming the whole thing is bogus because eggs don't cost $3 each.

    It's why I don't believe the 8 percent figure - certainly not for normal things that everyday people routinely buy.

    Protests erupt throughout France over inflation.

    Meanwhile, French refiners are on strike and the union has rebuffed French oil giant Total’s latest offer.

    It’s getting ugly in Brieland.
